Conor McGregor smokes weed while teasing trilogy fight with UFC rival Nate Diaz

Conor McGregor has insisted he will complete his trilogy with Nate Diaz after he "buries" Dustin Poirier as the Irishman launched into a tirade while smoking cannabis in Amsterdam.

The UFC superstar is out of action after breaking his leg against Poirier last July, but is eyeing a return for 2023 after continuing his rehabilitation. McGregor has piled on the pounds since being away from competition, and is expected to make a comeback at 170lb which would open the door to a third fight with Diaz.

The Stockton native has been dismissive of a third meeting with McGregor but could open the door to a fight particularly if it is organised outside of the UFC after his contract expired. Diaz decided to jump in and have his say on McGregor's recent outburst aimed at Dustin Poirier, tweeting: "You both get knocked out all the time."
